THE HAT HAS SPOTS. THE TOP HAS SPOTS. WHY MUST THE BOTTOMS BE STRIPEY?!?!?
Up close cameo + care question
Hello all! I posted earlier in the week about getting a jewelry box of baubles that belonged to my great aunt, and I've finally had some time to sit down and get some better pictures.
SO, here is this gorgeous cameo "set" (not 100% convinced they belong together since the earrings are facing differently/not the same iteration of woman ie flower in her hair?) that can be both a brooch or a pendant. The woman appears to be the Roman style, with the straight nose, but I'm totally out to sea with this so I may be wrong!
I can't find a signature or maker's mark, but I am very intrigued by it! I'd like to clean the setting up but am worried about damaging the piece--are there any household things that would be safe to use? Would a steamer hurt it?
Thanks for any advice!
Sayyyy less! Handed down from my great aunt...I love the case but the clasp is broken. I love that she had not one but two roadrunner* pins 🤣
